Character: lion-human of hohlenstein-stadel

post #69343

The Löwenmensch figurine, also called the Lion-man or the Lion-human of Hohlenstein-Stadel, is a prehistoric ivory sculpture discovered in Hohlenstein-Stadel, a German cave, in 1939. The German name, Löwenmensch, meaning "lion-person" or "lion-human", is used most frequently because it was discovered and is exhibited in Germany.

Determined by carbon dating of the layer in which it was found to be between 35,000 and 40,000 years old, it is one of the oldest-known uncontested examples of an artistic representation, one of the oldest statues ever discovered, and the oldest-known animal-form (zoomorphic) sculpture in the world.
